WrestleCircus ran a show Saturday in Austin, TX, in front of around 500 people according to reader Steve Conway. The promotion is relatively new with just a handful of shows, but they loaded up their lineup this past weekend. Here's a few highlights with notes from Steve:
- Lance Hoyt b Adam Page in a really good opener.
- Rachel Ellering b Christi Jaynes
- Sammy Guevara b Colt Cabana
- Jade b Joey Ryan in a no DQ match
Leva Bates interfered cosplaying Shinsuke Nakamura. Entertaining with Joey doing his usual intergender schtick. Crowd liked it a lot, especially the finish where the lollipop ended up in a place Joey definitely didn't want it.
- ACH b Chris Hero
Another match the crowd loved and was really into from the start. Hero played a subtle heel well. Excellent match.
- Donovan Dijak b. Tessa Blanchard
This was not good. A lot of missed spots and the intergender stuff was pretty pointless. This wasn't comedy, but we'd also already seen the "big v small" spots with other matches, so this brought nothing new to the table.
- Michael Elgin b Jeff Cobb
Crowd wasn't into this. It was disappointing in they just did forearms, versions of power German suplexes and clotheslines endlessly. They hit the forearms hard and both are really strong, but again we'd seen everything they did already with Lee/Rowe/Dijak. This had very little creativity and very little heat. To be fair, the show was going on five hours by this point.
- Ethan Carter III b Pentagon Jr.
Bad main event for the "Ringmaster" championship. The crowd was very happy to see Pentagon, but EC3 did this thing with a Jame Ellsworth ripoff called the "Trashman" where EC3's handpicked opponent from the last show came out and interfered. Crowd was more annoyed by it than anything else. Second show in a row EC3 was champ and did virtually nothing. This was a really flat ending to the marathon.
